What this estimate leaves out
Input volume includes the cached share, not an additional token volume. This is a list-price estimate, not a quote: cache-write charges, cache eligibility/TTL, batch discounts, long-context surcharges, regional pricing and taxes are excluded. Check the provider's terms for your workload before switching.
Accuracy: GPQA Diamond (graduate-level science questions) measured by Epoch AI (CC BY 4.0) on openai/gpt-oss-120b_high, run Dec 11, 2025. The model is the same at every provider, though quantized deployments can score lower.
